Todirostrum is a genus of Neotropical birds in the New World flycatcher family Tyrannidae.
Taxonomy and species list

The genus Todirostrum was erected in 1831 by the French naturalist René Lesson.[1] The type species was designated as the common tody-flycatcher by George Robert Gray in 1840.[2][3] The name combines the genus Todus introduced by Mathurin Jacques Brisson in 1760 with the Latin rostrum meaning "bill".[4]

It contains the following seven species:[5]

Image	Name	Common name	Distribution
	Todirostrum maculatum	Spotted tody-flycatcher	Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Peru, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago, and Venezuela
	Todirostrum poliocephalum	Yellow-lored tody-flycatcher or grey-headed tody-flycatcher,	Brazil, occurring from Southern Bahia southwards to Santa Catarina
	Todirostrum viridanum	Maracaibo tody-flycatcher,	Venezuela
	Todirostrum nigriceps	Black-headed tody-flycatcher,	Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Panama, and Venezuela
	Todirostrum pictum	Painted tody-flycatcher,	eastern-southeastern Venezuela and the northeastern states of Brazil of the Amazon Basin
	Todirostrum cinereum	Common tody-flycatcher or black-fronted tody-flycatcher,	southern Mexico to northwestern Peru, eastern Bolivia and southern Brazil.
	Todirostrum chrysocrotaphum	Yellow-browed tody-flycatcher,	southern Amazon Basin of Brazil, also Amazonian Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia
